Description
Multi award-winning political cartoonist, author, ranter, illustrator, broadcaster and poet. In his new show Martin takes us through 40 years of British politics with his personal and cartoon responses to the individuals he has met, including the perennial challenges of working out how to draw the "fresh meat" of each new Prime Minister, alongside the cavalcade of events we've all witnessed and he's depicted. Refreshingly indiscreet in revealing the people beneath the pomp and spin, as well as spilling the beans on the true nature of journalism. This show is fully illustrated.Please note that while all media gallery content is provided by verified members of the event, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society does not review or approve this content before it is posted.
